General von Senger and John Freeman
'I always looked for the sort of atrocities to which hard fighting troops are tempted to be led'.
'I was told several times to shoot them and to report their names on the same evening..... I got a telephonic line with Kesselring who knew me for quite a long time and said, "This is one of the orders I shall not obey".'
'I was very highly praised even by Hitler'.
'There were very few officers in the High Command who were of such a low intellectual level so as to approve of what the Nazis did'.
'The preparation of an aggressive war can never be, in my mind, regarded at a crime by anyone'.
